Great! I'm gonna try it right away. I have been getting loads of unable to handle kernel paging requests and thus failed to get any mm-kernel working. Memtest doesn't report any errors so I'm stumped.

This is my last hope. If it doesn't work... it's back to reiserfs again and hopefully a better world.

Hi ... downloading right now ...

You asked for suggest and i'm gonna ask for what i really need

What about implementing some iptables patches like :

-psd
-ipsec-matches
-osf

avaible at netfilter.org

also

CDFS
Systrace

After all i think that patch on Vanilla is really a good choice since i'm a little bit frustrated by "on the edge kernel" that rocks like ninja but sometimes get slow like turtle ... or freeze like ice !

Bye

I've been using reiser4, some of Con's patches, and systrace. I have a systrace-1.5 diff against 2.6.7-rc3-mm1 that works perfectly with 2.6.7 at http://people.msoe.edu/~maciejej/patches/systrace_1.5-linux-2.6.7-rc3-mm1.patch. The failed hunks from the official patch aren't hard to fix, but the entry.S ones are a little annoying.

It would be really nice to put a small and simple description (perhaps 2 or 3 lines) about each patch, what it does, and any reference sites for further reading.

I just miss that in all those funky sources out there

when i have the time i'll add a page to the site describing all the patches a bit and with an url to an eventual site where to get them..

I don't know what is causing this, but when im compiling stuff, the mouse cursor becomes sometimes a lot jerky

running r9, reiser4, preempt, any ideas?

it`s might be a staircase problem , somebody feeling this with stair .i think the good idea to test some schedulers behaviors and compare them , and play with params is to have a runtime elevation tool for scheduler - hydra. i`m using this . gui for this looks that -> http://amnesty.scene.pl/~sqward/fallow/2.jpg
